No doubt, you’ve imagined life after lockdown.
We’re not meant to sit idle but with interstate and international travel off the agenda (for now), hitting the road with the kids for a weekend away is more our speed right now.
It’s time to get the car out of the driveway or garage and hit the road. The snow, the beach and the country all beckon. And doing it in style has never been more desired.
Now imagine that road trip in an SUV with seven-seat capacity, adaptive air suspension and powerful V6 TDI engine as standard. Imagine futuristic interior design, greater levels of standard equipment and advanced technology and driver-assistance systems.
Well, imagine no more. The big new Audi Q7 offers this and more.
Since the first generation Q7 landed in 2006, Australian buyers have had a love affair with Audi’s luxury SUV. Combined with state-of-the-art technology, especially around safety and infotainment, the Q7’s more accessible and comfortable third-row seats make it especially family-friendly.
Imagine a world where safety and function is paramount.
With your precious cargo on board, safety in the Audi Q7 goes to a whole new level.
With a long-range radar, front cameras, six ultrasonic sensors front and rear, and four cameras for a 360-degree view all constantly monitoring the road and surrounding environment, the five-star ANCAP rating is well deserved.
The experience is further enhanced with a range of standard driver-assistance systems, including active side assist with exit warning, cross traffic assist, adaptive drive assist, collision avoidance assist and parking aid. Other features include autonomous emergency braking and intersection crossing assist.
The new Audi Q7 is also characterised by its space and functionality.
Imagine a world immersed in the digital age.
With the series-standard third row of seats, the Q7 can accommodate up to seven passengers. Clever rear seat configurations provide day-to-day versatility. Add to this, convenient ways to load and unload the vehicle, such as the standard sensor-controlled luggage compartment unlocking system, allows you to operate the boot lid with both hands full by a simple foot gesture.
The Audi Q7 offers the latest in connectivity and infotainment — and the result is both stunning and functional.
Step in the driver’s seat and you’ll experience the Audi virtual cockpit — a fully digital instrument cluster delivering traditional speed and RPM details as well as navigation, media and assistance systems in crystal clear detail.
The series-standard infotainment system — multimedia interface (MMI) with touch response offering haptic and acoustic feedback — graces the centre console and comprises a 10.1-inch screen (upper) taking care of infotainment functions, an 8.6-inch screen (lower) for on-board comfort settings.
Audi connect plus is standard across the Q7 range. The in-car connected technology provides a range of assistance, information, entertainment and security features to keep you connected wherever you go. Find parking spots, fuel stations with pricing and arrive at your destination on time with online real-time traffic data.
Add to this wireless Audi smartphone interface, allowing seamless integration of approved apps via Apple and Android smartphones and the Audi Q7 wants for nothing.
Imagine quality and refinement in the finish.
From the leather accents to ergonomic appointments, it’s the little things that define the fit, finish and consideration in every aspect of the interior design of the new Audi Q7 SUV.
Presented in a beautifully finished cabin combining benchmark quality and futuristic interior design, the new Audi Q7 is vast in dimension and absolutely stunning in its design. But for a more stylish and immersive driving experience, the 45 TDI can be optioned with the Premium-plus package which offers 21” alloys and luxurious interior appointments including 4-zone climate control, BOSE 3D Sound System and colour ambient LED lighting. For those looking for a sportier interior, the 50 TDI S line is equipped with the S-line sports package.
Now imagine an SUV so good, so balanced and so completely in charge of every situation, that it inspires confidence no matter where the road takes you. Then imagine pulling up outside your favourite restaurant, exclusive red-carpet event or the country estate. The new Audi Q7 does it all in style and makes it seem so effortless.
Daydreaming is over. Make the new Audi Q7 your new reality.
